LAURAS NAREIKO
May the other side
also be heard.
Latin expression
Finding and sharing the new is my passion.
I do it through art, concept design, and foresight.
As an artist, I draw provocative futures images. I also like writing microtexts (one-liners, aphorisms, etc.).
As a designer, I develop concepts of services and businesses.
As a futurist, I advise on visions, scenarios and optimal paths. One field of my interest is security, in particular cyber threat intelligence.
